    couch to 5k

    i wanna join but.... running... lots of fear and anxiety there... and its october in the midwest with no treadmill... hmmmmm.... but i need something to get my head in gear again. ... maybe if i wake up early and try it around the neighborhood before everyone wakes up and sees me... but then again there will be folks heading to work when i'm lying on the side of the road....

    Elliptical Anyone??

    i know what your are feeling!! i bought my elliptical maybe 3yrs ago and after it was assembled and i could barely do 2 minutes. the hubby was like What thats all you can do?? So i made him get on it. i think he lasted 30 seconds. its been collecting lots of dust and i have thought about selling it but i used it tonight!! 10 minutes, off to breath and then back for 5. i need to get in gear so i am hoping if i can stick to this it will be awesome! keep with it!

    What do you do for a living?

    I was an account manager for a financial services company where we managed the relationships with banks/other financials for their debit, stored value, health & transit cards. Quit that to work a 3 month contract position for my favorite nonprofit - which ended up being only 3 weeks. AAAAAHHH so now i temp with Office Team at BP. But I just applied for a job that would be a HUGE good fit at the Center for Financial Services Innovation - its the financial i have always done & the nonprofit i long to do ... SO PLEASE cross those fingers for me!!!

    October 2006 Bandsters!

    i dont think you are overreacting. i told everyone mainly becuz 2 aunts worked in the office and i knew they would tell everyone else so i beat them to it... but if you told her nto to say anything then she should have kept that to you. went to Friacos witht he hubby. i was so excited since we've been kinda tense with each other. ordered the Beans, & figured i could pick at a bean tostada and a steak taco. well didnt pay enuf attention to the steak and it so got stuck. pb'in in a public bathroom was sooooo not on my friday to do list!!!
